Abstract

To celebrate 60 years and pay tribute to the many great authors, reviewers, and editors of Transportation Journal we revisit the articles that have contributed so much to our discipline. In doing so, we provide a systematic literature review of the articles published in the journal since its inaugural issue in 1961. This review summarizes the most cited articles, the most frequently published authors, the primary topics of interest by decade, and other useful analyses. We also provide reviews of the top five most cited articles from the journal’s past. In all, this examination of Transportation Journal archives has yielded interesting results providing a roadmap to the past, present, and future of transportation, logistics, and supply chain research.
